Words Of Thought

Words of thought

Words from sorrow

Words of dreams

Words cannot see tomorrow

Writer of today

Writer of feelings

Tomorrow can take away

Another day comes forth

Another way

To say and feel

Another thought

Imaginary or real

Words feed thought

Hunger for a story

Say what is there

Or what isn’t before me

A story

Is it unreal

To say what I feel

Is it real to explain

Left alone writing down my pain

Feelings unexplained

As these words rain upon my thoughts

The truth is sought

Can’t be bought or taught

If you weren’t there

Can read words

Can’t feel the fear or tears

Can’t understand words

That aren’t clear

At the start

The ending to part

Or seek truth

It was me not you

Only I go through

Only understand

Writer of my words

As I hold this pen in my hand

Every thought was written

Each thought is mine

As I look at the words

And go back in time

As I’m left right here

To face the present

And what will never be there

What I’ll never be

What these words will become

Another shadow of me

Bring forth to light

But without eyes one can’t see

Each letter, each word

Forms a sight

Each poem is a piece of my life

My struggle my pain

The confusion of sadness

The happiness of rain

Explaining experiences

Without using names

Writer of words

From thoughts in which they came

My name is not all of me

What is there is more than I see

There’s more to be explained

As I go on in life

Writing the feelings

I contain
